I think so. It is a National Guard truck but I cannot remember where it came from. I have had it for close to a year now.

I was starting to think that. Now let us see how many fingers I lose re-installing the fender.

Thanks. It was a nice break. I think this one was stuck from sitting for a long time. But you would never know it now.

I have posted a lot of questions about a throttle issue I was having with my deuce Bert. Several people told me it is not a big deal the truck just needs to be driven. The problem I was having is the throttle was really stiff and I was afraid it might lead to bigger problems. Well, this past...

I have and the money and distance is a problem. I think even when I have a job, the price is just going to be too far out of reach.

I have thought about a water buffalo or even some small fuel trailers I noticed on GL. But I wanted to compare cost first. I figured I already have this deuce maybe buying the parts a little over time would be cheaper. Maybe, maybe not.

I am going to get into the laws and such once I decide if I am going through with this project. Is there any differences in the frame supports or suspension between the cargo and tanker deuces?

Man on man. Why must these deals fall in my lap when I am broke. That would be perfect, the only issue is this is a fact finding thread only. I do not have the funds to make a move on it just yet. I am gathering information right now so I can start on it when I have an income. I wish I could...

Agreed on both points.

That took a monet for me to take in. Some one put a lot of time and heart into that biuld. I am not sure how usefull it is, but it is a very nice truck.

If I had a job right now I would drive up, there pay the $900, bring it back, and make it shine like a new penny. I cannot belive how many of you are talking about picking it over and scraping what is left. Or, even parting it. It looks like a good truck for a restoration or even a biuld. If it...

I did not think of that, Thanks. It would be nice to get a light weight tank. Oh wait, do they make those to handle fuel?

I was hoping for either a PTO driven pump, or one that runs off of the deisel. I also though totally removing the bed might be a good way to go. Having a filtering mechanism is also somehting I would like ot have on this rig.

I never thought of having it set up as an occasional use type set up. That is a good idea. The only problem is I have no way of removing the pods and I would prefer the truck to be self contained. Meaning I would like the pump to be on the truck with the tank.

I have a CDL with all the endorsements already. I have no problem with the law, I think that will be the easy part compared to the conversion and making it work. How big of a tank can I go with? I guess that is a reasonable starting point.

I really want a deuce tanker for hauling fuel. But they are selling for way more than I can pay and I doubt that will change. So, I have a good truck (Bert) now that needs only a paint job and a little throttle work. Everything else on the truck is in good shape and it runs nice. What kind of...

I was looking at the exploded view in an on line TM and I think you are correct. I guess I am having a hard time getting over the fear of having a large truck I cannot move in my yard. Any idea as to the cost of a seal kit or where I can get one?

If I knew more about the IP's on these trucks I would have already had it done. Normally I would just take it apart and get it working again. But I am afraid to do that with one I am not familiar with. I could make it worse with out realizing it.

A work in progress with a simple fix. Several people who have more experiance with it have told me so. But I have not had the time nor the experiance to work it out. I have made a lot of prgress however, at least now I can drive it around. If we had went through with a trade I would have made...

I am a little worried about taking any bolts out becuase they are wired with a seal. I figured that was done becuase removing them would cause more harm than good. If I am wrong please feel free to carrect me.
